Re: Problem downloading and sending email

2016-12-13 Thread Denny White
Never could stop the old message d/l problem
no matter how I juggled & tweaked settings.
I finally went into Gmail settings & changed
the date cutoff to allow d/l messages to the
present. After first run no more problems.
Only glitch now is, no matter how I fiddle
with the settings I can't get it to delete
d/l messages once I've d/l them, but I can
live with that. Also got msmtp working. Must
be really tired. Answer was in front of me
all the time: one misspelling in .msmtprc
was causing it. Had to do with the logfile.
Either need some sleep or new glasses. Quite
possibly both. :) Again, thanks for the help.

-k | --keep
(Keyword: keep)
Keep retrieved messages on the remote mailserver. Normally,
messages are deleted from the folder on the mailserver after
they have been retrieved.  Specifying the keep option causes
retrieved messages to remain in your folder on the mailserver.
This option does not work with ETRN or ODMR. If used with POP3,
it is recommended to also specify the --uidl option or uidl
keyword.

Problem downloading and sending email

2016-12-13 Thread Denny White
Am running 6.0 Release with all patches up
to date. I've installed mutt, fetchmail,
getmail, procmail, & msmtp. Had rough time
setting up mutt trying to remember how to
use Mail vs mbox but got it working. Got
both getmail & fetchmail to d/l email from
my gmail account, but both have same problem:
they keep downloading old messages instead
of new. I've tried all sorts of ways with
fetchmail using 'no fetchall' to no avail.
Same with getmail. I also am unable to send
mail from mutt using msmtp. Am pasting in
all relevant *.rc's. Don't know if a dmesg
will help, but remember it's more often 

than not standard practice when asking ??s
on @misc. Thanks for any help might come
my way. Seriously! :)

Lenovo Yoga 2 11

2016-12-05 Thread Denny White
Trying to find out if anyone has had any luck with
OBSD on a Lenovo Yoga 2 11 or anything close
to that model in the Yoga line. I got it to boot off
usb using amd64 iso due to the Yoga using UEFI.
I hadn’t ran OBSD in quite a while, dumbassed
out & forgot to save a dmesg or ifconfig output,
but I know from both the system didn’t recognize
any network device like fxp0, eth0, etc., e.g. Only
showed the lo0, enc0, & pflog0. I’m aware of
/etc/firmware and from what I read it recognizes
the network device & sees it needs a firmware fix
the system does it on it’s own, but I guess that’s
not gonna happen if the system doesn’t even
recognize a network device. If anyone’s had any
luck at all with a Yoga 2 series I would surely
appreciate push in the right direction. Thx.

 (Should I take this to ports?)
 
 Trying to view a HTML attachment from the attachment menu

 http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-5.html#ss5.3
 
   text/html; lynx %s ; nametemplate=%s.html

 (Copying to /etc/mailcap doesn't seem to make any difference.)
 
 Does anyone have a hint of what could be causing this?
 
   Thank you for your time.

Possibly completely offbase here. Can't see your .muttrc so don't know
if you have the following in it or not:

set mailcap_path=~/.mailcap

or whatever the path is to the .mailcap you want to use. Possibly the
.mailcap entry is commented out in your .muttrc file. Pretty sure it
is commented out by default in the sample.mailcap file.

Side note on the above report pertaining to IPv4 preference: I've
got the strings set right in Seamonkey and Firefox:

network.dns.disableIPv6  default boolean false
network.dns.ipv4OnlyDomains  default string  (blank here)

Despite what the above report says, lots of sites either revert to
IPv4 like www.sixxs.net which says I'm not running IPv6, or like with
www.kame.net where the turtle doesn't dance. In lots of instances,
possibly on sites only running IPv6, the site won't load at all. And
I've tried it after comletely disabling my firewall too. Still the same
result.
I've tried temporarily allowing all in /etc/hosts.allow and commented
out what I had in /etc/hosts.deny but it didn't help the situation.
Any light shed on this problem greatly appreciated. According to the
IPv4 Exhaustion Counter at

http://inetcore.com/project/ipv4ec/index_en.html

we've got 99 days left until IPv4 address space exhaustion. I just hate
to be the 'One Geek (Wannabe) Left Behind'. ;)

  1st ed, and there's no information about it on the OpenBSD website. Hope
  someone could confirm this.
 
 Just buy the ebook from oreilly.com - the have epub, mobi and pdf. The mobi 
 file works fine with the Kindle (and is indeed the 2nd edition).
 
 Best, oxo
 
You can also try http://nostarch.com/ Same files included with book
purchase. And it's second edition.

 It seems that every three years or so, I get to spam this list about a
 product I'm responsible for, and in fact I hope to make it into a
 tradition.
 
 With the syntax changes in 4.7, the book needed an overhaul.  The
 result is here, finally, up to date as of 4.8.  I got my author's
 copies yesterday, and my initial reactions can be found at
 
 http://bsdly.blogspot.com/2010/11/book-of-pf-2nd-ed-its-here.html
 
 If you don't care for my relatively non-tech ramblings in that post,
 you can go directly to the source via at least two routes:  The
 OpenBSD.org orders page at https://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order
 (with a CD set, it makes a nice bundle I'm told) or the book's page
 at the No Starch press site, http://http//nostarch.com/pf2.htm
 
 As always, thanks to Theo, Henning and other developers who keep
 making the task of writing about OpenBSD fun and interesting.

 Would you please consider uploading an iso image of your OpenBSD

 If you are unfamiliar with the process of making an iso-image out

 Thanks alot, this will be of great use for poor folks like me who

 Try this:
 ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.7/packages/i386/

 Well, I've found that using an HTTP mirror works.  However, this is  
 concerning because all of these machines were able to use FTP properly  
 before, some Debian machines on the same network can use FTP mirrors  
 correctly (plus `ftp` to the same OpenBSD mirrors works from Debian),  
 and the links browser on the OpenBSD machines seems to do FTP correctly 
 too.

 One way or the other, the 'ftp' utility seems to have gotten broken  
 since 4.6.  I'd hazard to guess that it might not be supporting passive 
 FTP anymore, since active FTP does not work from the network and this is 
 reminiscent of what would happen if I tried using active FTP from behind 
 a firewall in the past...

 I've worked around the immediate problem with HTTP for now...but is  
 there any more useful information that I can provide from my end?

If you're comfortable with it, you could try disabling pf just long
enough to see if your ftp works without it. If so you could supply
your pf.conf since there have been syntax changes and possibly you
have something outdated in it. If you've got good backups you could
try doing a fresh install on just one box and see what happens. If
the problem goes away you'll know something got screwed up during
the upgrades.

 Sorry, what's the typo?  Why won't it work?

 since you're using ftp, 'ftp $PKG_PATH' should put you in the right

 Well, I tried `links $PKG_PATH` before - that worked.  But with `ftp  
 $PKG_PATH`, it appears to log in correctly, but ls never returns  
 anything.  This seems to happen with ANY ftp server actually (just tried 
 a bunch), and is odd because I did use the commandline ftp utility 
 frequently on 4.6 without any issue...

 So the problem lies with the 'ftp' utility?

Re: php5 uninstall problem

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


 On Thu, Apr 01, 2010 at 01:51:35PM +0300, Andreas Gerdd spoke thusly:
 Hi.
 
 Inside the /ports/www/php5 directory,
 
 i made;
 env FLAVORS=no_x11 no_bz2 no_curl no_gmp no_imap no_ldap
 no_sybase_ct no_xmlrpc no_xsl no_zip make install.
 
 But i notified that the installation was installing all these packages
 as well, (env FLAVORS not working?) so, i interrupted the setup with CTRL+C.
 
 Now i would like to remove all the files it installed.
 make uninstall says;
 make: don't know how to make uninstall. Stop in /usr/ports/www/php5.
 and as i know, make clean will only remove the .tgz/.tar.gz compressed files.
 So how can i completely remove ALL the installed files with php5 port?
 
 Sorry for my newbie question.
 
 Thanks a lot.
 

Taken from http://openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html#PkgPartial:

 The incomplete installation is usually marked with partial-
 prepended to the package name.   

If you do

ls -l /var/db/pkg/

do you see anything with, as it says, partial prepended to the port/
package name? Also, if you watch while you're installing a port or
package, it installs the ports/packages it needs first, then the
port or package you originally wanted installed last. Consequently,
if you stopped the php5 installation part of the way through while
it was still installing all its dependencies, php5 isn't installed.
So, it makes sense if it says don't know how to make uninstall,
since it isn't installed.

Look for the port with partial prepended to its name, then do

pkg_info -L partial-port-whatever

and see if it lists what it had installed up to when you stopped it.

As for cleaning up after a port build, see:

http://openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html#PortsClean

Hope this helps you some.

It's in daily output mailed to root's account. You got to have access
to root's mail. I've got myself in the wheel group and have root's email
sent to me instead. Here's some pertinent stuff in root's crontab:

ROOTBACKUP=1# backup / to /altroot
MAILTO=dennyboy   # forward root's mail to me

In /etc/mail/aliases, my name is added next to root:

root: dennyboy

In daily output to root, the section of the message pertaining to
the backup should look something similar to this:

Backing up root filesystem:
copying /dev/rwd0a to /dev/rwd1a
131098+1 records in
131098+1 records out
1073955328 bytes transferred in 51.680 secs (20780520 bytes/sec)

Naturally the 2nd line is dependent on your disk setup, fstab  so

  That doesn't happen very often. Not around here anyway. ;) 
 
 It's just that the code creating hw.sensors.cpuX.temp0 is a little
 different between i386 and amd64, so amd64 shows one sensor for each
 core (but with the same temperature) while i386 shows only one sensor
 for all cores.

I'm trying now to figure out why fan isn't shown. I know there's
some power handling going on. I can get the screen to turn off,
just in X, but when I run sysctl hw.sensors there's nothing about
the fan.

  slink off now. ;)
 
 I'm sure there are other dumb-asses out there ( I just saw one in the
 mirror a minute ago) . . . your post will come in handy for those
 dumb-asses who actually check the archives.
 

There are other unintelligent life forms out there? Hallelujah, I'm
not alone anymore, and my cd's should arrive today. Life is good.
Thanks, Neal. ;)

received a confirmation/tracking number for the shipment of my 4.5 CD.   

USPS tracking number confirmed. Puffy was last seen somewhere in

Not being able to read cpu1 temp probably isn't a big deal, at
least I'm guessing it's not  that's it probably pretty close
to the same temp as cpu0 since they both seem to share the load
fairly equally when I'm doing intensive stuff like building a
kernel  so forth. I just wanted to try to learn how to enable
all functions on cpu1 if possible. Also, I thought it might help
if I included the advanced cmos settings:


Core Multi-Processing:  [Enabled]
Dynamic CPU Frequency Mode: [Dynamic]
(other choice on above setting is 'Always Low')

Re: generic.mp on laptop question: resolved

2009-04-16 Thread Denny White
On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 08:41:27PM -0500, Denny White spoke thusly:
 Laptop is a Toshiba L305-S5921. I'm running -current on it with a snapshot 
 from 04/14/09. No, I couldn't wait for my new cd's
 presently in route. ;) Mostly done just for learning purposes 
 to see what I could get going on the new laptop which was given
 to me as a present. I would've probably chosen a Lenovo if I'd
 have had my choice, but I'm not going to turn down a free laptop.
 Built GENERIC.MP which ran fine for me. When I do
 
 sysctl hw.sensors
 
 I get
 
 hw.sensors.acpiac0.indicator0=On (power supply)
 hw.sensors.acpibat0.volt0=12.34 VDC (voltage)
 hw.sensors.acpibat0.volt1=12.34 VDC (current voltage)

 hw.sensors.acpibat0.raw0=0 (battery full), OK
 hw.sensors.acpibat0.raw1=0 (rate)
 hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0=45.00 degC
 
 which doesn't show cpu1. Next is the top portion of top's output
 which does show both cpu's:

Alexander already showed in his reply LogLevel won't work

to stop you from running 2 instances of sshd on separate ports
with separate configurations using the -f switch? Use LogLevel
VERBOSE in the Logging section of the one where you want to keep
a more watchful eye and LogLevel INFO or QUIET or whatever you
want on the more trusted one. The users you want to watch use the
first one and your trusted users use the 2nd one. Just my $0.02.

I see advice given all the time to stay away from Nvidia, so I just
wanted to clear that up early on, to show what graphics hardware was

 NVIDIA graphics are a problem, as is the Intel part used with Atom Z5xx
 (GMA 500, a licensed PowerVR core rather than their usual in-house designs).
 And technical docs are not available for the USB2 video adapters.
 Other than that, most things you can buy work.
 
  My main concern was if there were any other problems like

 Suspend for ACPI-only systems is difficult but is being worked on.
 Onboard sound works ok on most systems.
 

Thanks, Stuart, for the info. One probably REALLY big thing I forgot
to mention is, the Toshiba is 64-bit. Besides probably having to run
current, which isn't a problem, I'd probably be running amd64 with the
bsd.mp kernel. Again, no big deal. I was just concerned that I wouldn't
wind up with an expensive paperweight or worse, have to revert to the
M$ OS that it comes with. ;) Not that I'd do that. I'd try a Linux
distro before I'd do that. I already have one windows box for some
specialized work I do. That's enough. As for the Lenovo, I'm actually
not too concerned about that one working. I guess what I really wanted
was to be able to get the Toshiba with more hardware for the same price
as the Lenovo.

Lenovo and Toshiba laptop question

2009-03-07 Thread Denny White
Just checking to see if anyone has tried OpenBSD on either of
these laptop models

Toshiba Satellite A305-S6909
Lenovo 3000 G530

and if so, how much success they had. The Toshiba shows this
on the graphics:
Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD

The Lenovo shows this:
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500

No mention of Nvidia, so that's a plus. I'd rather have the
Toshiba since it has a bigger hard drive and more ram for
the same price, but I know from reading on the list that
Lenovo is generally more compatible with OpenBSD than most
laptops. I also know that you're usually better off going
with an older model since there's been time to test it, write
drivers, code, etc., for it, than with a relatively new model.
I have an ancient Toshiba but it's really not up to the task
anymore except maybe to use as a secure email station, etc.
I searched through the mailing lists archives but found no
mention of either model listed above, so any comments, advice,
and so forth much appreciated.

 You should really take these questions to an awk forum, not to this
 mailing list.
 
 Your program reads the first record, and assigns its first column to
 'n' in a loop that is immediately exited (with 'next') and goes on to
 read the remaining records.
 
 For the remaining records, 'i' being still 1 from the prematurely
 exited loop, the first column is subtracted from 'n'.
 
 Regards,
 Andreas

Deleted original message, so replying to Andreas' message.

To sum by columns, do:
awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
input

If you want to sum by lines, do:
awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
input

If you want to total all the numbers at once you can do:
awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
input

If I misunderstood what you want, like do you just want to total
the first column, then:

awk '{print $1}' input | \
awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}'

For another column, just change the '{print $1}' to whatever column
you need. The gurus might and probably do know a better way, but
that works. Hope this helps.

   21188 it is first column, why?
  
  You should really take these questions to an awk forum, not to this
  mailing list.
  
  Your program reads the first record, and assigns its first column to
  'n' in a loop that is immediately exited (with 'next') and goes on to
  read the remaining records.
  
  For the remaining records, 'i' being still 1 from the prematurely
  exited loop, the first column is subtracted from 'n'.

 To sum by columns, do:
 awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
 input
 
 If you want to sum by lines, do:
 awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
 input
 
 If you want to total all the numbers at once you can do:
 awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}' \
 input
 
 If I misunderstood what you want, like do you just want to total
 the first column, then:
 
 awk '{print $1}' input | \
 awk '{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)t[i]+=$i}END{for(i=1;i in t;i++)print t[i]}'
 
 For another column, just change the '{print $1}' to whatever column
 you need. The gurus might and probably do know a better way, but
 that works. Hope this helps.

Now I know I'm tired. I overlooked the subtraction part.

To subtract down through just the first column, do:

awk '{print $1}' input | \
awk 'NR==1 {n=$1; next}; {n-=$1} END {print n}'


For a 4 column file, to subtract through all 4 columns, do:

awk 'NR == 1 { d1 = $1; d2 = $2; d3 = $3; d4 = $4; next }{ d1 -= $1; \
d2 -= $2; d3 -= $3; d4 -= $4 } END { print d1, d2, d3, d4 }' input

And again, hope this helps.

weekly/locate.updatedb problem

2008-12-28 Thread Denny White
I know from past experience and doing a lot of online searching
that this problem crops up from time to time. Usually someone
just did a new install and doesn't know the locate.datebase
isn't created by default. You have to do it yourself to get
started. Just stating those things so no one thinks I'm looking
for a quick fix without any rtfm or research. I'm getting

Not installing locate database; zero size

when weekly runs. I've created the database myself several ways:

sudo /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb

which makes it much larger than the normal size which happens
because it's not under the normal constraints it is when run
from weekly. Also used

sudo su -m nobody /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb

which produces the normal size.

I haven't done any modifications to weekly. It's straight
'out of the box' from when I installed 4.4. I've looked at
the permissions on the pertinent directories and none of them
appear to have changed. I've looked at root's crontab and can't
find anything wrong there. It's just like it was when I was
still running 4.3 and locate.updatedb worked fine from weekly
then. Still, when weekly runs, locate.updatedb fails. I've
tried running ls from another term when weekly starts and
could see /var/db/locate.database.XX. Sometimes
locate.update will run for up to 10 or 15 secs, but usually
it fails, almost immediately. I should mention, also, that
there's no problem with /tmp or /var sizes. /tmp is 1Gib
and almost empty. /var is 2GiB, also mostly free. Anyone
got any ideas where to look next, I'd appreciate it.

 There's an empty /var/db/locate.database in etcXX.tgz. Didn't you
 install etcXX.tgz?
 
 Ciao,
   Kili

Okay, maybe I worded my question wrong. Sure, I installed all
sets including etcXX.tgz. Regardless, I'm still trying to solve
the problem of the update failing now. As I said before, I've
tried to check every conceivable thing I could come up with
that might be causing it and am still coming up emtpy. Weird.
And, IIRC, I did have to get it kicked off originally manually.
Just for fun I just copied the original empty file to /var/db/

-r--r--r--  1 root wheel 0 Dec 28 15:16  locate.database

and ran weekly again. Did a listing from another term to show
it had started and was trying:

-rw--- 1 root  wheel  0  Dec 28 15:19  locate.database.Hojrmm6565

After about 10 seconds it failed again. I ran top to watch how
much load it was creating, not that it ever came anywhere near
what it does while kernel or userland building, but just to see
at what point it failed in case it would help someone else who
was trying to help with the problem.

18714 root  57  0 4324K 5912K run  -  0:10 31.49% perl

That probably won't help but I'm at the 'shooting in the dark'
point here. For the record, here's the locate portion of weekly
to show that nothing's been altered. I decreased the indentation
to keep within 72 characters: 

echo 
if [ -f /var/db/locate.database ]; then
  TMP=`mktemp /var/db/locate.database.XX`
  if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
  trap 'rm -f $TMP; exit 1' 0 1 15
  echo Rebuilding locate database:
  UPDATEDB=/usr/libexec/locate.updatedb
  echo ${UPDATEDB} --fcodes=- --tmpdir=${TMPDIR:-/var/tmp} | \
  nice -5 su -m nobody 2/dev/null 1$TMP
  if [ -s $TMP ]; then
  chmod 444 $TMP
  chown root:wheel $TMP
  mv -f $TMP /var/db/locate.database
  else
  echo Not installing locate database; zero size
  fi
  else
  echo Not rebuilding locate database; can't create temp file
  fi
else
  echo Not rebuilding locate database; no /var/db/locate.database
fi


I'm just wondering, since perl moved to a new number if something's
changed there that's causing the problem. At that point I wouldn't
know what to do. I did check ulimit to see what the settings were.
As a user I get

time(cpu-seconds)unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
coredump(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 524288
stack(kbytes)4096
lockedmem(kbytes)166098

and as root

Once again, shooting in the dark.

 If I run it manually (as root, sh /etc/weekly), it fails with the

Thanks Dave  Philip, too, since I'm CC you, for the ideas and help.
Y'all will probably want to kick me in the ass when I explain what
was causing the problem. But, your messages helped me figure it out,
none the less, especially the part about changing directories before
running the command. When I recently went from 4.3 to 4.4  installed
a new crontab, I copied  pasted my own  root's stuff into their
respective crontabs from a backup. Wrong backup! There was 1 changed
line that I never noticed until I read your messages. The crontab for
root had HOME=/root  I can't remember why in the hell I changed that
one day farting around with something here. Long  the short is, I
copied from the wrong backup. I just changed it back to HOME=/var/log
 locate.updatedb from weekly works fine once again. My bad. I keep
voluminous notes  but that one just slipped through the cracks.
Sorry for the noise,  thanks for the help.

Re: verify installed packages' binaries integrity ?

On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 08:04:05PM +0100, jul spoke thusly:
 (Note: it is not related to packages integrity when installing)
 
 a small question, is there any way to check integrity of installed
 packages'binaries ?
 i explain: in the case, i fear my host is compromised and i forgot or
 have corrupted mtree files, can i ask pkg manager to say if any
 referenced file has a different checksums than recorded. (+CONTENTS file
 has md5 and size)
 
 i know, this does not concern any base binaries which are the stuff that
 matter the most, but else ...
 If no mtree, i think the last option is comparing with binaries from CD
 hoping they didn't changed.
 
 thanks
 Regards

A simple alternative way to check the integrity of files is at:

https://calomel.org/ids_mtree.html

I use ids.sh out of a nightly cronjob  cuss myself out every time I
forget to run the script with 'generate' after changing something, as
it doesn't miss anything. At least it hasn't yet. ;) And the plus is,
it's done with mtree which is in base instead of using something
third-party  having to fart around with another conf file.

Re: OpenBSD 4.4 Console Will Not Clear

 Greetings

I have been running OpenBSD as a firewall/router since 2.5 and have  
 never had any problem with Clearing the console each time a user logs  
 out. I have just installed 4.4 on a system that was running 4.0. I did a  
 complete install from the install CD off the ftp site(s). I then edited  
 /etc/gettytab the same way I have done many times before, following the  
 FAQ instructions. The console will not clear after logging out. I have  
 even rebooted and the same results. I thought I might have screwed the  
 file up editing it so I even did another clean install and ONLY  
 installed pico to edit /etc/gettytab just in case I somehow messed it up  
 using vi... still no go. Looked out on the net and found no reference to  
 this. Any Ideas?

 Bret


I'm assuming you're referring to

http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#ConsoleClear

i.e.,

To do this you must add a line in /etc/gettytab(5). Change the current
section:

P|Pc|Pc console:\
:np:sp#9600:

adding the line :cl=\E[H\E[2J: at the end, so that it ends up looking
like this:

P|Pc|Pc console:\
:np:sp#9600:\
:cl=\E[H\E[2J:


Now try changing

default:\
:np:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:

to

default:\
:np:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:cl=\E[H\E[2J:

Replying to my own message to say problem solved. Don't know what
changed in 5.1 or samba, but the error messages can be gotten rid
of by adding the following to the ssh command on a windows loopback
connector bash script in cygwin  hopefully putty or others if not
using cygwin. I don't know since I haven't used putty in a long time.

-o TCPKeepAlive=no -o ServerAliveInterval=10

I put 10 since I think sshd checks every 20 seconds or so by default.
Anyone correct me if I'm wrong on that. I'd read where the 'no' on
the TCPKeepAlive protects against some sort of spoofing. Thought I
should explain that since it looks redundant, and very may be with
the newer ssh. It wouldn't affect this system anyway, I don't think,
since all connections are done using keys rather than passwords. And
again, anyone correct me where I'm wrong. Anyway, the error messages
are gone.

Moved your post to the bottom. Makes it a LOT easier to follow a
thread as in 'please don't top post'. I don't care but most others do.
I built 1.6.0 but it works on the same the principle for you in 1.5.0.
Do you mean you copied the actual files there? I'd get rid of them
first to keep from any confusion. You have to link back to the actual
binary as it needs other stuff which isn't in your plugins directory.
Then:

ln -fs /usr/local/jdk-1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so \
~/.mozilla/plugins/

Open firefox  in the address bar type 'about:plugins' (minus quotes).
Mine looks like so:

Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03-p4-b00

File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03

Lots of java specs follow below that.

Okay? [ Chuc may man! (minus diacritics - just guessing ]
Apologies if I'm wrong. ;)

 Something like replying no to Do you want to use the entire disk for 
 openbsd could be a good start. I believe that would keep the existing 
 partitions, and you could map them to their respective mount mounts again. 
 I think, however, that you need to _not_ specify mount points for the file 
 systems you want to preserve to prevent them from being newfs'd.

 Since I seldom, if ever, do that kind of fresh reinstalls, you'd better 
 compare the above with install.sh et al. In any way i think it should be 
 possible, but pretty please do make those backups before anyway. :-)

Thanks, Alexander. I'll give it a shot. I just did a dump on everything

 Just don't define mount points for the partitions you wish to
 keep, and they won't be newfs'd (i.e., existing data will be
 preserved).
 
 AFTER the install, you will go in and edit /etc/fstab and add
 your saved partitions.  Ta-da! your data is back.
 
 Have a backup anyway, of course.  Sucks to fat-finger something
 in the process...
 
 Nick.
 
 

Thanks, Nick. Yeah, that's what some other replies said. And, like
I said too in my answer, everything's just been dumped  homedir
rsynced, so I'm going to give it a try. And yes, fat fingers suck.
I know from experience. ;) Thanks for the help.

Yep, that's been the general consensus in the other replies. Thanks

rsynced my homedir, I also have fstab  quite a few other etc files

 It also helps to note down the starting and ending cylinders of the
 partition you want to preserve.
 
 You can think of the OpenBSD fdisk partition as one big contiguous block
 of sectors. Irrespective of its physical location, it is one single
 unidimensional series of sectors. Each sector is exactly 512 bytes.
 
 OpenBSD fdisk and disklabel unlike the ones found in other OSes always
 tell us the cylinder boundaries.
 
 This has helped me think a bit more clearly.

 As always, it is a shame that those types of pages have so many

 For instance, check out the disklabel section.  2 out of 4 answers
 being right is still only 50% accurate.
 
 With that level of accuracy, the name is incredibly poorly chosen;
 perhaps they don't even know what the name refers to.  It refers to a
 document that contained an accurate translation of the same text
 into different languages and therefore it was possible to decipher an
 unknown language.  With this level of accuracy, that would be impossible.

You're absolutely right about the mistakes in that section. I used the

vietnamese and unicode text

2008-07-06 Thread Denny White
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


I found a program, VietPad, to type Vietnamese with the necessary
diacritics. I couldn't get it to work completely until I found out
about mlterm's capabilities, so I installed mlterm and now I can
enter and properly display the diacritics. Now I'm trying to find
out how to print the text files VietPad creates, since its output
is unicode. Can someone point me in the right direction for either
being able to print it as is, convert it and then print it, or if
there's a better way from the get go to type Vietnamese? I've tried
x-unikey without much success, and never could compile xvnkb. As
things stand, I can print from VietPad, but of course it's a jumble.
The printer is an ancient Star 2410 dot-matrix, but it handles the
Vietnamese diacritics fine from the one windows box I still have,
printed via samba/cups on my OpenBSD box. Also, I failed to mention
VietPad is a jar file which runs with 'java -jar VietPad.jar'. Don't
know if that makes any difference, but, I thought I should mention
it just in case. Thanks for any help I can get on this. It is, in
fact, the only reason I still have to have a windows box at all,
since it's easy to do there with another program I have. Still
trying to break free completely.

Read this portion of /etc/daily:

# If ROOTBACKUP is set to 1 in the environment, and
# if filesystem named /altroot is type ffs, on /dev/* and mounted xx,
# use it as a backup root filesystem to be updated daily.

And, if you read fstab(5) you'll see this:

If fs_type is specified as ``xx'' the entry is ignored.

So, fs_type should be xx in your fstab, right? You didn't include
your fstab, but that sounds like what the problem is; i.e., you
don't have that in yours and altroot is mounting normally.

For that matter, there's no conflict either with Eterm. And I can
run screen from all of them without any conflicts.

And, like some of the other messages mentioned, use wsvt25 in ttys.
Also, in my .kshrc file, I have the section commented out like so:

#if [ -x /usr/bin/tset ]; then
#   eval `/usr/bin/tset -sQ \vt220`
#fi

The ttys and .Xdefaults settings takes care of all of that. Hope
this helps you some. Marc Espie made a good point too, in his reply.
Leave the system config files alone as much as possible, especially
while you're learning. If you can't, at least back up the original.
Anytime you can use an 'rc' file in $HOME do it. It's kind of like
leaving /etc/rc.conf alone and putting your stuff in /etc/rc.local
and rc.conf.local.

vnode swap question

2008-05-09 Thread Denny White
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I've followed faq 14.4 on setting up a permanent swap.  I've rebuilt the kernel 
with:

config  bsd root on wd0a swap on wd0b and vnd0c dumps on wd0b

Then I created the actual swap file:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap bs=1k count=262144

I added the info to fstab:

/dev/vnd0c none swap sw 0 0 

Then, as per the faq, I rebooted.

Then I did

sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap 

and got

vnd0: 268435456 bytes on /var/swap 

Then I did:

sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c

And then:

swapctl -l
Device  512-blocks UsedAvail Capacity  Priority
swap_device41952960  4195296 0%0
/data2/swap20971520  2097152 0%0
/dev/vnd0c  5242880   524288 0%0
Total  68167360  6816736 0%

Everything's fine at that point. But, when I reboot, I have
to repeat the commands

sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap
sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c

in order to get the extra swap back again. I thought from reading
the faq that it becomes permanent, but I can't get it to. Can
someone maybe point out if they see something I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

 I use vim since it enhances my coding speed in a big way.
 
 As to KNF I guess it is just a habit that I want to inculcate for all my
 C coding. Right now it is voluntary and occasionally painful but I don't
 want to lose the chance to make it automatic by going in for a tool.
 
 I am bowled over by vim's knowledge of config file syntax and the way it
 highlights various keywords. That way I can afford to be a bit lazy with
 certain programming languages or even config file directives. It would
 highlight typos in a different color.
 
 Occasionally vim does  go wrong however but so far it has not affected
 me.
 
 I type out this mail with vim and it helps me appear good since I have
 auto spell check on. With bad keyboards I tend to make silly typos and
 vim can save my day by highlighting it and alerting me. 
 
 Of course I would not be so much in love with vim but for its vi key
 bindings. 
 
 As to power editing you should really read the short and sweet document
 written by the author of vim Bram Moolenaar.
 
 (If someone can locate it for me I shall be obliged. ;)


 He emphasizes how the steep learning curve experienced by vi learners
 are paid back in full in due course of time. I can vouch for it. So what
 if it is counter intuitive in the beginning?
 
 So what if it is sometimes tougher than emacs? Once you use it every time
 you create a document be it LaTeX or e-mail or source code or config
 file editing, you stick to one editor and that according to me is an
 amazing convenience.
 
 Its ability to read and write files makes it even more powerful of
 course. And the output of commands.
 
 Hope this helps. That said choice is yours as always. ;)
 
 Open source is a democratic world. ;)

Re: tcl-8.4 and tk-8.4 manpages

 I installed tcl-8.4 and tk-8.4 which are required when installing git.  My
 question is how to get the mann directory to display in man.  I have tried
 organising tcltk in /etc/man.conf in several different ways.  Here is how I
 have it organized now.
 
 
 
 # tcltk manpages
 
 _whatdb /usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/man/whatis.db
 
 _whatdb /usr/local/lib/tk8.4/man/whatis.db
 
 _subdir {cat,man}{1,3}
 
 _build .n /usr/bin/nroff -man %s
 
 _default/usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/man/
 
 tcltk   /usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/man/
 
 1   /usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/man1
 
 3   /usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/man3
 
 n   /usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/mann
 
 
 
 Example I can  man -s tcltk 3 Tcl_RecordAndEval and the man page comes up
 normal.  I can also  man Tk_GetVisual or man -s tcltk 3 Tk_GetVisual and the
 manpages come up normal.  Using man -k tk and here I will show some of the
 display from that command:
 
  tk_messageBox (n) - pops up a message window and waits for user response.
 
 tk_optionMenu (n) - Create an option menubutton and its menu
 
 tk_popup (n) - Post a popup menu
 
 tk_setPalette, tk_bisque (n) - Modify the Tk color palette
 
 tkerror (n) - Command invoked to process background errors
 
 tkvars (n) - Variables used or set by Tk
 
 tkwait (n) - Wait for variable to change or window to be destroyed
 
 
 
 I would like to be able to display man pages for the (n) section.  ie. man -s
 tcltk n tkwait or man n tkwait
 
 As is now when I try to display commands in the (n) section I get results like
 this:  -bash-3.2$ man n tkwait
 
 man: no entry for tkwait in section n of the manual.
 
 man -s tcltk n tkwait
 
 man: no entry for n in section tcltk of the manual.
 
 man: no entry for tkwait in section tcltk of the manual.
 
 
 
 Please enlighten me.

I tried a bunch of crap in other sections of man.conf  never could
get the n stuff to display. So, I added right at the very end of

 # Specific section/directory combinations.

n   /usr/local/lib/{tcl8.4,tk8.4}/{man/mann/}

When you want to read a man page from that section, just remember to
plug in the 'n' before the man page. Like

man n tk_textCopy

There's probably a better way to do it, but I don't know how. At least
this works.

4AM, but that's okay. Problem solved. Had previously done some
experimenting around with ~/.profile and ~/.kshrc when I'd been
having history file problems in ksh. As soon as I reverted back
to my old ~/.profile instead of the newer short one that just
exported HISTSIZE, HISTFILE, and ENV=$HOME/.kshrc the XForwarding
problem disappeared. Don't try this at home, kids, especially at
4AM when you're not only old and senile, but tired as hell too. :-)

Re: OT: Can an SSH alternative to WebDav be use on OpenBSD

 Hi,
 
 I need some possible suggestions if I may asked to not setup, or have to 
 setup WebDav on OpenBSD to allow users to do their web folder stuff. It 
 can be setup with ftp for example to allow them to map a folder in their 
 network place on XP for example, but then they can't do the stupid 
 save as and just for that, they want to use the WebDav. However, then 
 it need to allow write access via http and the full load of issues that 
 could with that when combine with php, etc.
 
 I only allow ssh access and in very special case, I had accepted ftp 
 from specific locations control via PF, but because of the stupid save 
 as, they are screaming for WebDav, or mod_dav, witch I really would like 
 to avoid totally.
 
 I just don't see the benefit worth the risk required to allow it.
 
 May be I am wrong and someone could in light me, witch I would very much 
 appreciate, but again, may be there is an alternative using SSH that I 
 do not know.
 
 I provided WinSCP years ago and it sure works well, plus I can control 
 access via ssh with PF too, witch I would loose introducing WebDav.
 
 I hate all these users that can only work using a GUI like interface all 
 the time and fell they need everything to be done via http.
 
 Anyone can provide me some ideas, or alternative here as I am running 
 out of them and being view as the asshole that always refuse flexibility 
 for security is fine, but may be there is something I can do to keep it 
 safe and give the winers a bone.
 
 I hate the Microsoft centric bias users that care less for security, but 
 would also be the first to scream should there be compromise too.
 
 Any suggestions here?
 
 Sorry for the somewhat off topic question, but I need suggestion if 
 there is any.
 
 Best,
 
 Daniel.
 

I don't know if this will help since it'll involve the windows users
having to install the M$ loopback adapter on their boxes  configure
it. It's what I use on my network for the windows boxes to access
the OpenBSD boxes via ssh. And, all windows users are using cygwin,
not putty or some other gui. In my case, I only allow passwordless
logins using rsa keys  authorized_keys files instead. If you allow
password logins, it wouldn't be a problem. No idea how many users
you have, so I guess it could turn into an admin's nightmare if
you had to go into each user's $HOME/.ssh  do the setup there.
I guess you could send out a notice  give them a deadline to ssh
in  set it up themselves. But, we're talking windows users here. ;)
Anyway, here's the link for setting up samba over ssh:

http://assela.pathirana.net/Samba_over_SSH_--_Opening_Windows_to_
UNIX_safely_and_reliably

That's all one line above. I dropped part of it down for the 72
character rule. As the article shows, instead of having to open
a cygwin prompt, then issue the tunneling command, the whole thing
can be automated with a script  a windows service started on boot.
When the user clicks start, run, types in the IP address  enter,
explorer will open showing them their samba shares. So, there's
the gui they crave. ;) Hope this helps some.

Glad to help if I can. One caveat to warn you about the windows
boxes, Daniel. I really had a hair pulling time on one  it turned
out to be because it had M$'s tools for unix administration on it.
It wasn't needed since cygwin was on there. I know it was running
nfs client services which also wasn't needed, left over from before
samba was totally incorporated across the network, and I'm not sure
what else, so there was undoubtedly something there conflicting with
cygrunsrv. Once the unix admin tools were uninstalled, and the box
rebooted  the tunnel established, when the clicking start-run-
typing in IP-enter crap was all done, the hookup was really fast.
I'm sure if you wanted you could reverse that  get rid of cygwin
 keep the unix tools running it's sshd as a service instead, but
I'm used to cygwin  actually kind of like it. It's helped me out
quite a bit in the past.

On Tue, Jan 29, 2008 at 11:17:25AM +, Stuart Henderson sez:
 while this is a way if you _must_ use SMB/CIFS, I'm not too sure if a
 combination of samba, cygwin (which users won't bother to update once
 it's installed so no security fixes) and MS loopback adapter (for some
 client-breaks-their-own-network-and-shouts-at-you fun) is really the
 simplest and most secure setup.
 

If you're not real concerned about any particular packages, cygwin
is really easy to update, just as easy as microsloth, just a few
clicks, but yeah, good point. There are probably much better ways
to do it. I just threw it in the mix as a point of interest. OTOH,
I haven't had any network breakage from the adapter, but I'm sure
it can happen. Luckily for me  the few computers on this network,
it works really well so far. I haven't had any breakage or problems
since I uninstalled the m$ tools for unix off the one box.

 If you mean me - thanks, Danny; I love you too.
 
 1. Any test messages, which I've sent, reached the list several hours (some
 even more than 24) after submission - and I had no idea at all until then,
 that it'll finally appear on the list.
 
 2. Any warnings I've received - I've received several hours *after* I've
 sent last message.
 
 3. I really don't know any other way to test, whether the mail will reach the
 list, than... to just send it to the list. Perhaps you - smart guy, as I can
 see - will tell me different way to test access to the list without sending
 anything to the list.
 
  As test messages grew,
  It was found that the crew,
  On misc@ were all really pissed!
 
 4. It's really a pity, that *all* (?) of you prefer to see my difficulties
 as some kind of bad will or list abuse; and nowhere could I see a
 message like: perhaps he needs some help?. I don't want to believe, this
 is usual attitude among OpenBSD community members. Really unbelievable.
 
 5. What a nice, helpful and kind man you are, dennyboy. Your mother should
 be so proud, indeed.
 
 Just out of curiosity: what really a difference can you see between my tests
 - and this, for example, thread, whish is just about nothing (limericks)?
 I can see at least one: I *had* to make some tests, I was in contact with
 the list admin - but you don't have to show off here, with your poetry.
 Seems, you want to.
 
 
 That's the second - and last - explaining from my side. I want to add,
 that such (over)reaction of several persons is very disappointing to me.

ksh history question

2008-01-28 Thread Denny White
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 

I've read the ksh man page, googled for days,  can't seem to come
up with the answer. Either I put no mention of HISTFILE and HISTSIZE
in $HOME/.profile and I don't have a lasting history file of previous
commands. Or, I put it in and I do have a history file, but the
HISTSIZE setting has no effect. It doesn't change and the file grows
and grows. Currently I have it set as shown below to save my command
line history:

HISTFILE=.ksh_history
HISTSIZE=50

I've tried using .ksh_history$$ to have a different file each login,
and know I can run a cronjob nightly to clean them up if I want to,
but I can't figure out how to make the history turn over just like
it's supposed to with the HISTSIZE value without all that other mess.
Thanks for any help I can get on this.

 notice that the variable is named HISTSIZE, not HISTFILESIZE :)
 
 HISTSIZE affects how many commands are kept in history (in memory - not
 file). so, for example, if you set HISTSIZE=3 you'll only be able to
 recall the past 3 commands in history. it does not turn over HISTFILE,
 however.
 
 i'm a bit confused by this myself, though - it does seem logical that
 the HISTFILE not store more commands than history itself is able to
 recall. i can;t tell by looking at the code what goes on in there -
 maybe someone else can chip in...
 
 jmc
 

Thanks, Jason. Yeah, I tried the HISTFILESIZE too. What's really
weird is, just all of a sudden, it started working! But, instead
of it starting with the number 1 on the beginning, with HISTSIZE
set at 50, e.g., you run 'fc -l 0'  you might see the beginning
number 163 with the most current command number being 211. It
never goes all the way to 50 commands, usually just 48 before
dropping one off the tail end. This is no problem, I just must be
misunderstanding the man page. Another thing I found out is, after
copying $HOME/.profile to $HOME.kshrc, removing all mention of
HISTFILE  HISTSIZE from .kshrc  putting only the following in
.profile

HISTSIZE=50;export HISTSIZE
HISTFILE=.ksh_history;export HISTFILE
ENV=$HOME/.kshrc
export ENV

it works just the same as if there was no .kshrc file  everything
was still all in .profile. I've got it running one way on one box
 the other way on another box,  they're both working. Why they
didn't work before is a mystery to me. But, I learned something
anyway about being able to do it two different ways. Thanks for
the answer.

Each time I made changes, I tried various ways of getting it to take

 I recently changed the name of a computer with OpenBSD 4.2 by editing
 the /etc/myname file.  That seems to have taken care of the renaming
 almost everywhere.  I also changed the name in the /etc/hosts file as
 well.
 
 However, when I send an e-mail from it using mail, the from address
 shows the original name, not the changed name.  Also, if I don't specify
 a hostname for the to address, it appends the old hostname instead of
 the new hostname.
 
 The configuration file in /etc/mail doesn't have the original name
 anywhere.  Neither does the mc file.
 
 Does anyone know what else I need to change?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Eric Johnson
 
 [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature]
 

AFAIK, there are 3 files it says that need to be updated when
changing hostname. /etc/hosts, /etc/myname  /etc/hostname.interface.
The last one on my system is hostname.fxp0 and, since you didn't
mention changing your IP address, I don't why hostname.interface
would have to be changed.
I hate to ask this, but did you reboot or restart the network after
making your changes? If not, you're not going to see the changes
until you do one or the other, or change it using sysctl. Try this
 see what you get:

sysctl -a |grep hostname

If it still shows the old hostname,

sudo sysctl hostname=newname (same as in /etc/hosts  /etc/myname)

Then try your email again  see what happens.

cups printing question

2007-09-15 Thread Denny White
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 

I'm getting garbled printouts when I try to print to my xp network
shared printer, an HP DeskJet 722C, from my OpenBSD 4.1 box. A good
for instance is the OpenBSD home page. Graphics printed great, but
about 3/4 of the left side of the page was lopped off, and the
sentences on the right were in some places garbled or the top half
of the letters lopped off.

I've got the following installed:

1) enscript
2) ghostscript  ghostscript fonts
3) cups
4) pna2ppa - d/l from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pnm2ppa/
   (It built  installed on the system without any problems)
5) HP-DeskJet_722C-pnm2ppa.ppd d/l from linuxprinting
6) samba (probably didn't need it but it's quicker from the
   xp box than nfs for when I'm lazy  don't want to use scp)
7) cupsd, smbd,  nmbd load fine on boot from /etc/rc.local

I tried changing firefox's page layout margins to match what the
cups printing defaults were in the print dialog. But, when you're
configuring the printer from the browser interface, the margins
you're offered don't seem to correspond. I.E., first instance is
0 and then goes to 10 and i don't understand what the increments
are. mm? I also checked /etc/pnm2ppa.conf and commented everything
out except for the 720 part which covers that whole series of
printers.I've got the device url set to lpd://xpbox/HPDeskJet and
I know that's right because at least it's trying to print now.
I printed a couple of text only pages from the rfc's main site
perfectly. I don't know if it's having trouble with page tables or
what. Any help much appreciated. Any other info I didn't supply
but possibly need to, please let me know.

Re: Another qemu + OpenBSD host + networking + pf

On Sun, Aug 26, 2007 at 08:30:19PM -0700, Allie Daneman spake forth:
 Ok...first off I apologize for wasting bandwidth this morning looking for 
 help...blame it on Sunday morning laziness. After googling and trying things 
 I got my qemu working w/XP finally. The undeadly article is great but isn't 
 as complete as it could be. Hopefully this will fill in the cracks for any of 
 you out there that want to get qemu going ASAP to start using virtualization 
 on OBSD ;) Here it is cut and dry:
 
 ### Install ###
 1) qemu-img create -f qcow xp.hd 4G  Create image
 * make sure xp.hd is writable by the owner running qemu (otherwise you 
 can't partition the drive in Windows Install) **
 2) qemu -m 384 -cdrom XP.iso -boot d -monitor stdio xp.hd  Boot iso image 
 as if it was on a cdrom
 
 ### Setup networking ###
 3) Update /etc/sysctl to enable forwarding:
 net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
 
 4) Create /etc/hostname.tun0 with the following:
 link0 up
 inet 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
 
 5) Create /etc/pf.conf with this or something similar:
 internal = tun0
 external = ipw0
 
 set loginterface $external
 scrub in all
 
 nat on $external from $internal:network to any - ipw0
 
 pass quick on lo0 all flags any
 pass in quick on $internal proto icmp all keep state
 pass in quick on $internal from $internal:network to any keep state
 pass out quick on $internal from any to $internal:network keep state
 
 pass out quick on $external proto tcp all modulate state
 pass out quick on $external proto { udp, icmp } all keep state
 
 block quick all
 ### starting Qemu ###
 6) sudo qemu -m 384 -monitor stdio -net nic -net tap xp.hd
 
 That's it !!! No qemu-ifup script needed. Obviously you assign XP (or 
 whatever OS you install) an IP in the 192.168.0.0/24 network and you're 
 golden. This is a virtual network...so changing it is as easy as changing 
 your hostname.tun0, pf.conf, and the IP in the OS you're running as a 
 virtual. My only dilemma is that I run dhcp on two external interfaces and I 
 don't want to change DNS servers on my virtual every time I move. I think I'm 
 going to work on running dhcpd on tun0 and script a DNS IP harvester for 
 dhcpd to assign the same DNS servers as the host. There's always more to do 
 ;) Enjoy...

Thanks for all of that. It'll make it a lot easier for a pf dummy
like myself. Sorry for the link before. Didn't know it was the same
info as undeadly. Just a link, that is, to where I sent you. We know
where road where good intentions lead. ;)

that can be safely shrunk, I don't have any problems. But, when I try
to split a large one by selecting certain sequential chapters, I run
into problems. Last night I ripped the 1st 15 chapters of a video dvd
no problem. Audio was fine, etc. I also ripped the entire dvd with
dvdbackup, so I don't think there's anything wrong with the dvd itself.
Later I tried to rip the 2nd half, same as before, with dvdauthor 
streamdvd, chapters 16-29  that's when the trouble started. I used
script  a high debug level to try to capture as much info as possible.
It's directly below here. Also, some errors from /var/log/messages to
show what was going on underneath.
Outside of this splitting a dvd problem, the only other problem I
had was with streamanalyze seg faulting now  then, but that probably
had to do with my typing in the wrong parameters. Don't know at this
point. Most of the time, it works okay along with lsdvd.
I read everything I could find before asking this question  googled
around quite a bit. Not a complaint, but some of the documentation
is scant on such things as streamdvd. I also tried contacting the
port maintainer before asking, but I imagine he's busy enough already.
Also tried another method for ripping from:

http://www.ericdugas.com/howtos/ripDVDWithMplayer/ripDVDWithMplayer.php

but ran into problems with mp2enc on that one. Thanks for any help I
can get on this. And, if anyone knows of a simpler workable way to
split a large dvd, please let me know.

 That line is probably unnecessary.  Unless you can point to a specific
 program that your .procmailrc uses that is not in the default PATH set
 by procmail, why change it?
 
 
 FORMAIL=/usr/local/bin/formail
 Why do people think that hardcoding the paths to normal programs is a
 good thing?  Why not just say formail and let the shell do the work?
 
 
 SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail
 
 Remove that line: procmail sets that for you.  ($SENDMAIL is a
 historical wart that exists only because sendmail was originally
 installed into a directory (/usr/lib) that wasn't in anyone's path.)
 
 
 LOCKFILE=$HOME/.lockmail
 
 Ugh.  Do you know what that LOCKFILE assignment does?  Unless you have
 a specific need for it (and I don't see anything in your .procmailrc
 that does), you should remove it.  If you don't know what it does,
 then go read the procmailrc(5) manpage and then remove that line.
 
 
 # Anything that has not been delivered by now will go to $DEFAULT
 # using LOCKFILE=$DEFAULT$LOCKEXT
 
 That comment is not correct for at least two reasons:
 1) the locking of $DEFAULT$LOCKEXT is only done if $DEFAULT names
an actual file and not a directory, and
 2) it doesn't (re)use LOCKFILE: you can hold both global lock and a local 
 lock
 
 When I take procmail out of .getmailrc  just download everything
 to my inbox, there's no problem. The problem starts every time I
 try to use procmail. Below is typical output of a getmail session:
 
 2007-07-13 14:23:31 Delivery error (command procmail 17884 error

 It looks like the complaint from getmail is that procmail is writing
 stuff to its stderr.  That's occurring because you set VERBOSE to on
 before you set LOGFILE.  Either remove the assignment to VERBOSE or
 move it to after the LOGFILE assignment (or move the LOGFILE
 assignment to before the VERBOSE assignement, of course).
 
 
 Philip Guenther

Philip,
Thank you. Followed your advice. Pertinent section below. It works.
No more error messages, messages get filtered properly, life is good.
I had set it the previous way that made the errors I guess out of
misunderstanding the documentation and samples I had found. Anyways,
thanks again, very much appreciated.

If it's available to you as streaming content, read the following.
I love A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor  am rarely
home to listen to it on Saturday evenings. I run a script out of
cron that streams it in  dumps it to a file so I can listen later.
Below are the basics. You just need to find out the address of the
content you want  change it out with the ones below. If you don't
want to save it for later, just take out the -dumpstream  -dumpfile
stuff. e.g., mplayer mms://radio.mponline.org/MPB_Live would just
stream it in for you to watch.

mplayer -dumpstream mms://radio.mpbonline.org/MPB_Live -dumpfile 
/data/mydir/garrison/mp3/show/`date +%Y%m%d`phc.mp3


`date +%Y%m%d` prepends the current date to the phc.mp3 file
for later reference.

Try 'man mplayer'. It's a good read. ;)

For capturing text on the console, you can use 'script output.out'.
After everything that you want to capture has passed, hit ctrl-d
 it'll all be in the output file.

I mount some nfs shares off my xp box here and copy files to

other replies to your message  you might want to heed the
warnings. Actually, it's probably a lot safer to just scp the

to the external storage on the xp box nightly using rsa public
keys so it can be done unattended, i.e., passwordless. I have 
cygwin  m$ tools for unix admin installed on the xp box with

sshd running. There may be a simpler way to do that, but I don't
know. I did like that in the beginning when I was first learning
about intercommunication between the 2 operating systems, it
worked,  I left it alone. ;)

Hello,
I'm having great difficulty allowing my users to mount the cdrom. I've
looked in the faq and both fstab and mount manpages, but still can't
find it! I think the GNU tools allow:

mount /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom -t cd9660 -o user

I'm looking for the appropriate fstab entry, but according to the man
pages, there doesn't seem to be a way? I thought it would be something
like this:

/dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom cd9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0

But I get the following:

mount_cd9660: -o user: option not supported

Help!

Try man sudoers  look for the cdrom example.

Be careful: each release adds, and occasionally removes, new system
users. It's far safer to either update or reinstall, and you'll want to
look at www.openbsd.org/current.html for anything resembling an update.

Joachim


Thanks, Joachim. I was going to look in the new group after a fresh
install to see what had been added or removed. Always before I've
either done a complete fresh install or an upgrade, so I didn't have
to worry about the users in /home. I just recreated them on the new
system, if it was a fresh install, with their same uid's. Then I
copied everything from backups back over to the respective dirs.
I was just trying to get out of doing that this time. I figured
at the very worst my idea wouldn't work  I'd have to wipe it all
out  do it the old way. I thought if I added the old /home users
to the new /etc/group, copied the /home dirs over, ran pwd_mkdb 
properly chown the /home dirs, it might work. That's what I was
trying to find out. Now that I've thought more about it, probably
the easiest way is to just exclude /home  /data when I delete 
recreate the other partitions, recreate the users on the new install
with their same uid's,  run pwd_mkdb  their dirs will be okay.
Thanks for your answer  info. I think I've unnecessarily complicated
this. ;) Thoughts?

In these situations I usually keep a copy of /etc in /home/etc.tgz and
just do a new install, skipping the /home and /data partitions when
running disklabel.  It's never a bad idea to have a full backup, though!




Just did a dump on all  backed up /etc to the extra hard drive.
That's why I mentioned being able to copy the old files over.
Just wanted to know if I had it right, the way I said to do it.
Thanks for the info.

Re: USB Printer Recommendation

Alright, I was able to get the printer to print using the apsfilter.  Works
awesome!  Now to buy some ink and remove all traces of windows from my hard
drive.  Thanks again everyone!


Alright, well the disposition didn't have any cheap laser printers but I did
find a HP DeskJet 810C for $15.  I know you guys said stay away from inkjet
printers, but the price was right and the hpijs driver says it supports it.
It's connected via usb.  I installed hpijs along with all it's dependencies.
I
then edited /etc/printcap with:
lp|DeskJet:\
  :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\
  :af=/usr/local/share/ppd/HP/HP-DeskJEt_810C-hpijs.ppd.gz:\
  :if=/usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip:\
  :sd=/var/spool/output:\
  :sh

After starting lpd, I then tried to print with lpr, lpr /etc/printcap.
The printer starts up and begins to print, but then the paper light comes
on and after pressing it, a blank sheet comes out.  Anybody have any
thoughts?  Is my printcap wrong?  Thanks.





Today James Turner wrote:


Well, it seems I'm still having issues with apsfilter.  It prints the

now trying the foomatic-rip script again, which is yielding the same
result as last time.  Some one emailed me a nice set of instructions off

Below is my /etc/printcap file, I have a2ps, hpijs and ghostscript all

Moved your posting down so it can be followed better. I never
had much luck with apsfilter or hpijs. I have an old HP DeskJet
722C on an xp box. Everytime I do a new install of OpenBSD, I
copy foomatic-rip  the pertinent ppd file to /usr/local/bin 
use the following /etc/printcap entry:


rp|windows line printer:\
:rp=HPDeskJet:\
:rm=remotexpbox:\
:af=/usr/local/bin/pnm2ppa.ppd:\
:if=/usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip:\
:sd=/var/spool/output:\
:mx#0:\
:sh

I noticed your ppd file is either gzipped or the entry in your
printcap is wrong. That may be a capability of apsfilter, foomatic
or hpijs I'm not familiar with. Don't know, but in all probability,
someone on the list may enlighten me. ;) Also, my printer is not usb
so that may be an issue. I just know the procedure I outlined above
works okay here. So, try putting the ungzipped ppd file into
/usr/local/bin, set the path appropriately in printcap, then try

lpr -Plp filetoprint

Hope this helps.

If you use xdm to start X, your custom settings below call for trouble.
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers forces the X server to use ttyC4, which should not
have a getty process attached.


The other problem is, when I'm on the desktop in an xterm
window, it's as though the settings in .profile like my
aliases I have setup, aren't recognized, like they're not
in the current environment settings.


xsession or xinitrc files don't source your .profile.
you need to start xterm with the '-ls' option or the loginShell resource
set to TRUE to have the shell executed in them source it.
Or put your settings in ~/.xsession (for xdm) or ~/.xinitrc (for startx).


I never had anything
like this happen when running 3.9. Now, on 4.0, I did a
clean install, started having the problem, moved to stable,
now current. Problem is still there.


I'd suggest you compare your current setup with the one you used before
(you did a backup, did you?). X has almost not changed between 3.9 and
4.0.

-+-neil-+-




Thanks for the answer, Neil. I've finally got it straightened
out. And I use startx for x. The pertinent ttys settings are
below. ttyC4 is once again off. I had misread the instructions
a long time back, always used that terminal for x,  it never
seemed to have any problem.
The other part about sourcing .profile from xterm puzzles me
still, since I never had to add any switches in the fluxbox
menu to the xterm command before in 3.7 through 3.9. It now
reads (xterm) {xterm -ls } and all the aliases I use are once
again there, so I know .profile is being sourced. And yep, I
do a full dump at least monthly  incrementals in between. ;)
Thanks again for the info.

http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#SwitchConsole


Okay, thanks Jeremy, I appreciate the memory jog. I'd
read it when I first started using obsd  apparently
totally misunderstood it. I guess it never bit me before
because I always used ttyC4 for startx which, in itself,
shows my misunderstanding. I'd always had ttyC4 enabled,
along with a couple more in rc.conf.local. Switching
back  forth between desktop  other consoles okay now.
I've done some more reading elseware, edited my fluxbox
menu for xterm, changing the {xterm} to {xterm -ls }
and now the aliases in .profile are once again working
too, from xterm. Still don't understand why they used
to work without that extra setting, but it's working,
that's what counts. One good thing came from all this,
I'm finally up to current without any apparent problems.
Thanks again for your help.

serial console question

2006-07-22 Thread Denny White

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


I've hunted around the archives, googled, read
the faq on serial consoles, read what's in my
copy of Absolute OpenBSd, but can't seem to
find what I need to fix my problem. Running obsd
3.9 on one box  obsd 3.8 on an ancient p90.
I connected my nullmodem cable to #1 serial
connection on each box. I've got the regular
suggested settings in ttys, that is:
tty00   /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 vt100   on  secure.
I know about the security problem with 'secure' but
this is just on my lan, for learning purposes. I
also tried different baud rates and vt settings,
but the same thing happens each time. After I
connect from the client box with 'tip tty00'  I
type 'set tty com0'on the other box, the display comes
up on the client box really weird, spread out across
the screen  wrapping,  more often than not, after
a few minutes, it starts making a continuous alarm
sound and you can't enter anything else in. I have
gotten as far as logging in a couple of times, but
not too many. Even after hitting ~. to disconnect,
most of the time you can't reboot in the proper manner.
It'll get as far as 'syncing'  that's it. It just hangs.
One box are the other has to be reset  then the other
box will finish syncing  reboot.
My friend told me that problems like that usually
are caused by the fifo,  that I should disable it,
but I haven't figured out how to do it. I looked at
GENERIC and see the pccom settings but nothing about
disabling fifo. I did boot -c  saw pccom in there,
but again, I don't know what to do about it. I was
wondering too, if it's a problem between the video cards.

is already long, but if anyone wants me to put in both

etc, I can get to help me fix this.

You did that on ONLY ONE BOX, right?
ONLY the box you are trying to use the serial console on, NOT the box that is 
running tip(1).


(trust me, you don't want to do this on both boxes, then run tip on one of 
them...  In fact, don't assume, go check it.  Really.  I know this is a 
potential issue because I once forgot I had set a machine up for a serial 
terminal...then months later, tried to use it as the terminal for a machine 
with a serial console.  ugly.)

Your friend is wrong, I do think.
If anything, that would make things worse, not better.  FIFOs on serial ports 
are your friend, at least if properly implemented.  Yes, some HW vendors have 
been known to screw it up.  Disabling isn't the right answer, though...new 
hardware is a better plan.


Once Again, a dmesg would have been nice.

more likely to be a problem with the color of the case.
(i.e., no, it's not the video cards).

Assuming you didn't alter /etc/ttys on both machines, you need a third vote. 
A wild guess, based on a lack of hard information, is that you have a machine 
running out of spec.  Which one?  No idea.  Could be the old P90 (age) or the 
newer machine (cheap junk), or both a little out of spec in different 
directions. That's why you need a third machine to try, and see who can talk 
to what.  It sounds like you are doing things pretty close to right, 
otherwise, you would not have logged in at all.


I'm more suspicious of changes made to /etc/ttys on the terminal machine, 
though.


Nick.




You hit it right on the head, Nick. I had it set in ttys
on both boxes, and yes, it was UGLY! ;) My friend, BTW,
doesn't run any BSD's, nix's, just windows, although he's
done some serial stuff with his ham setup. Sorry for the
bother. Should've read a little more closely. Working
perfectly now. I did experiment with a faster baud rate
after I got it working with your advice, again not really
knowing what I was up to. ;) Won't do that again. 9600 is
fine. I wanted to make some use of the old box. It's a
really old Prioris XL 590DP server given to my friend.
It was left over after Katrina wiped out the office it
was in. Surprisingly enough, the only thing bad in it
was one scsi hd. Sorry for not putting dmesgs in before.
Thanks for bailing me out, Nick.

Runs in chroot'ed apachehrmm...methinks you are new to all of this,
right? Maybe you should contact your local sysadmin and ask him the explain

If you mean that a client executable served back from a webserver, thats
easy: it'd be a non-executable object under any document root.


Thanks for your help


If you have a browser, you have an FTP client.

However, FTP over HTTP is the major suck.




the browser itself is only for anonymous ftp :-( I actually wanted FTP over HTTP

I use mozilla-firefox with the fireftp extension. Works

Epson 1200 Scanner problem

2006-07-18 Thread Denny White

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Epson 1200 scanner worked great until a few days ago. Shut
all boxes down for a bad thunderstorm blowing through. Later
when I turned this box on with the scanner, scanimage -L no
longer picked it up, although it showed up in dmesg with
uscanner0 as usual. I was able to run

scanimage -d epson:/dev/uscanner
and get it to scan, but the gimp no longer could acquire it.
Thinking maybe something happened during the storm, like a
surge somewhere, I hooked the scanner up to my xp box and it
worked fine, went through its warmup, scanned okay, etc. Hooked
it back up to this box running obsd 3.9. Immediate message at
the terminal when you connect/disconnect it. Tried disabling
uscanner in the kernel and setting epson.conf to use libusb with

usb 0x04b8 0x0104.

When I use sane-find-scanner I get

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0104
[Perfection1200]) at libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be
# supported by SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

where before I disabled uscanner, sane-find-scanner couldn't find
it. Scanimage -L still doesn't find it. And, scanimage with the
- -d switch  info no longer works. When this problem first started,
I hadn't changed the kernel or rebuilt userland for quite a while,
so it's not that I changed something in the system to cause it.
Since, however, I have tried updating my source code, rebuilding
everything, reinstalling sane-backends and frontends, but to no
avail. Included my dmesg below, hoping someone would see something
I'd missed. Any ideas very welcome.
